Well losing Alfaro for 9 months sucks.

[aaronweiner]

Series loss to Brooklyn exactly what I didn't need.

At any rate I don't think it was Francisco Flores that cost me the division, so that's good at least.

[GoldenOne]

3 games left against New Orleans. Need to win 2 to get under 100 losses for the season. Go Cougars!!

[ae37jr]

Mission accomplished. Set out to raise some hell this year and hell has been raised. Everything from here on out is gravy.

Though I do plan to try my darndest for bookend Landis titles. So I guess I have a new MO.

[lordtoffee]

Congrats to all those that have clinched their playoff spots, and good luck to those that are still fighting.

Well done, Alan. That's a helluva year.

Here is a fun stat. Luis Espinosa threw 282 pitches this sim.

Portland needs 1. Against Vancouver no less. Haha

I sat we have some fun and do it, just for the heck of it. What can it hurt?

Both expansion teams look like you've made incremental improvement. 2043 should be a bit of a litmus test, I'd think.

61 wins last year in Charlotte. Hoping for at least one more this season to actually have that improvement.

It would be fun to do a look back in a few seasons at the expansion draft.

Chris did a nice review of his first ten rounds recently.
